Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to the field of surface treatment of aluminum or aluminum alloy parts, and in particular to the field of polishing of aluminum or aluminum alloy parts.
  • the invention is particularly intended for the polishing of parts produced by additive manufacturing.
  • Additive manufacturing or 3D printing constitutes a major axis of R&D in France and around the world, making it possible to produce three-dimensional polymer or metal parts from powders. Due to the method of production by successive fusions of powders, additive manufacturing processes make it possible to produce parts with complex geometries but also to consider the production of new alloy grades not accessible by traditional metallurgy while limiting the quantities of raw materials needed. Additive manufacturing is a particularly interesting technology for the aerospace, automotive or naval industries with a view to improving the performance and weight reduction of structures.
  • powder bed additive manufacturing processes intrinsically lead to the creation of parts whose final surface state presents the stigma of being produced from powders with, in particular, surface roughness (expressed by the parameter Ra) between 5 and 25 ⁇ m depending on the process, i.e. significantly greater than the roughness of a machined part (of the order of a few microns).
  • the parts produced are generally characterized by the presence of partially melted particles on the extreme surface which may present a risk of detachment in service and thus degrade the performance of these parts (blocking of pipes, entrainment of particles in hydraulic systems, reduction in static and dynamic mechanical properties, etc.).
  • polishing processes such as electropolishing or plasma or laser polishing but these processes require the use of current or even lasers with a high induced cost.
  • the use of lasers or work with high electrical intensities requires special protection for operators.
  • these complex processes need fine control of their parameters. Concerning electropolishing baths, they are also difficult to manage because they are very hygroscopic and dehydration steps are necessary periodically.
  • So-called chemical polishing processes consisting of immersing the part to be treated in a bath, called a chemical polishing bath, containing acidic or basic compounds as well as oxidizing agents, without application of an electric current or a laser, are more simple to implement.
  • the first bath includes 50 mL of nitric acid, 250 mL of sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid, and 3 g of nickel sulfate.
  • the second bath includes 60 mL of nitric acid, 750 mL of sulfuric acid and 160 mL of phosphoric acid, and 2.5 g of copper nitrate.
  • polishing baths are known from the article “ Chemical polishing of aluminum and its alloys” by J. HERENGUEL and R. SECOND, METALLURGICAL REVIEW. XLVIII. No. 4. 1951, p1-5 .
  • the polishing solutions offered contain 80 to 95% by weight of phosphoric and sulfuric acid, with 3 to 10% by weight of nitric acid, at temperatures between 85 and 120°C.
  • the surface finish obtained is excellent, but the treatment times are very short, from 30 s to 1 min.
  • the US 3,425,881 describes a so-called polishing solution, but which is closer to 'shining', that is to say whose objective is to smooth out bumps and have a shiny finish.
  • the bath includes sulfuric and phosphoric acid, nitric acid, copper, ammonia and aluminum.
  • polishing baths for aluminum parts are described in the CN 106757039 B , US 4530735 A And FR 1093415 A .
  • the objective of the invention is to provide a polishing bath for aluminum parts which makes it possible to obtain a surface having an average roughness (Ra) less than 5 ⁇ m and limited material removal, typically less than 300 ⁇ m.
  • the present invention relates to a chemical polishing bath for aluminum and aluminum alloy parts, and to a process using such a bath.
  • the objective of chemical polishing is to reduce the surface roughness of a metal part, through an operation of selective dissolution of a layer of material of variable thickness, which can range from tens of nanometers to several tens of nanometers. micrometers.
  • This material removal is done chemically, using reagents which can be acidic or basic in nature, but also have oxidizing properties.
  • the dissolution caused by the chemical polishing process has a direct impact on the dimensional appearance of the part even if this is not the desired objective, which differentiates it from the chemical machining process whose only objective is to reduce the dimensions of the part (several tens or hundreds of microns), so as to reach a target value.
  • the principle of chemical polishing is also different from that of chemical pickling, which is more similar to the chemical machining process.
  • the objective of chemical stripping is to eliminate a layer of oxide, of which the thickness is of the order of a few microns, without impacting the dimensional characteristics of the part and its surface roughness but making it possible to promote the adhesion of the surface treatment applied subsequently.
  • polishing means reducing the surface roughness of a part, by modifying its dimensions as little as possible.
  • One of the merits of the invention is to have identified compounds, and their respective concentrations, which allow a significant reduction in roughness, without significantly increasing the haircut, whereas these two effects generally require antagonistic parameters.
  • the solution according to the invention comprises an oxidizing agent, which will attack the surface of the aluminum part, a complexing agent of the aluminum oxide.
  • the density of the bath is controlled by the mixture of sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid. Indeed, in order to obtain a polishing effect, the present bath has a viscosity, or density, generally greater than that of other chemical etching solutions, e.g. of the chemical machining type. Thus, aggression of the present solution is different from conventional pickling or chemical machining solutions, despite the use of reagents which may be similar.
  • the two acids used sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid
  • the arrival of H + ions, coming from these two acids, near the surface to be polished is also limited by their diffusion, which makes it possible to control their attack function.
  • the greater viscosity of the polishing solution makes it possible to slow down the phenomena of diffusion of chemical species from the solution towards the surface of the part where they have been consumed.
  • the goal is to make diffusion slower than reaction kinetics.
  • the surface is thus depleted of attacking agents (oxidizing agent, sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid) and complexing agents, because they have been consumed faster than they reach the surface. Their arrival therefore takes place first near the tops of the reliefs of the surfaces to be polished where their action will have priority. While the hollows will not see as many reagents (attacking agents and complexing agents), these having already been consumed by a reaction on the most raised points of the part. This phenomenon is thus responsible for a polishing effect on the surface by selective dissolution of surface roughness.
  • talking about an increase in the viscosity of the bath is equivalent to talking about an increase in its density, and vice versa.
  • the effectiveness of the present chemical polishing bath is based on the control of the kinetics of diffusion of oxidizing agents and complexing agents within the bath towards the surface of the part to be polished, as well as the kinetics reaction of oxidizing agents with the surface of the part to be polished.
  • the principle of action of the chemical polishing bath according to the invention is as follows. An appropriate viscosity (increased compared to conventional chemical etching baths) of the chemical polishing bath makes it possible to slow down the phenomena of diffusion of active chemical species (here the oxidizing agents and complexing agents) from the solution towards the surface of the part . Near the surface, the active species are consumed, which induces a local depletion of the bath.
  • the active species diffuse from the bath towards the surface, and in doing so they react as soon as they enter into contact with the surface to be polished.
  • the most accessible zones being the tops of the peaks causing the surface roughness, attack on the tops is favored, which allows a reduction in the relief of the surface and therefore in the overall roughness of the part.
  • the chemical polishing bath according to the invention has been particularly developed for the polishing of parts resulting from additive manufacturing techniques, but can be applied to all kinds of parts made of aluminum or aluminum alloy, whatever the process of obtaining .
  • the dimensions and/or geometries can be very varied.
  • the aluminum part to be treated may be part of a component. That is to say that the aluminum part to be treated can be combined with another material, to which it is juxtaposed or superimposed.
  • the fluorinated complexing agent added to the chemical polishing bath is chosen from NH 4 F, HF, NaF, HF, KF, HF, SiF 6 or their mixtures.
  • the role of the fluoride complexing agent in the invention is to combine with the oxidized aluminum (Al 2 O 3 , AlO(OH) or Al(OH) 3 ) which forms on the surface of the part under the attack of the oxidizing agent, or which can be in solution.
  • the preferred inorganic complexing agents are in the form of a fluorinated salt and hydrofluoric acid. In other words, it is a weak acid in the presence of its anion, the fluoride ion or F - .
  • the complexing agent used also has a buffer function, which makes it possible to control the pH of the chemical polishing bath.
  • fluoride ions are capable of complexing a variety of metals, which is interesting in the case of aluminum alloy parts. Furthermore, fluorides are extremely stable complexing agents in solution, and the risk of them being degraded over time and forming poorly controlled by-products is minimal.
  • the fluoride complexing agent is present at a concentration between 0.6 and 1.2 mol/L, preferably between 0.8 and 1.1 mol/L.
  • the oxidizing agent is present at a concentration between 1.3 and 2 mol/L, preferably between 1.4 and 1.6 mol/L.
  • phosphoric acid is present at a concentration between 11 and 13 mol/L, preferably between 11.5 and 12 mol/L, and/or sulfuric acid at a concentration between 1.6 and 3 mol /L, preferably between 1.7 and 2.2 mol/L.
  • Copper is generally introduced into the polishing bath in the form of a soluble salt in order to promote copper dispersion and a homogeneous copper concentration in the bath.
  • copper is added to the chemical polishing bath because it catalyzes the oxidation of the surface of the aluminum or aluminum alloy part to be polished.
  • As a catalyst its consumption is very low because it is regenerated after its reaction with the substrate by the action of nitric acid.
  • the added copper salt is preferably chosen from the group consisting of copper sulfate, copper nitrate or a mixture thereof.
  • the copper is added to the polishing bath in the form of copper sulfate, because the sulfate ions associated with copper are already present in said polishing bath due to the use of sulfuric acid, which reduces the risk parasitic reaction linked to the introduction of other elements into the reaction medium.
  • Copper is preferably present at a level of 0.10 to 0.20 mol/L.
  • the polishing bath becomes charged with dissolved aluminum, due to the chemical attack taking place on the surface roughness. It is possible to regenerate such a bath after use by simply adding the compounds consumed during polishing, in particular oxidizing and complexing agents, and in this case the regenerated bath always contains aluminum, which is also the case for baths traditional chemical polishing. However, traditional baths are destroyed when the aluminum concentration becomes too high. The presence of aluminum can in fact disrupt the functioning of the bath, and harm polishing performance, which results in particular in the slowing down of reaction kinetics which could penalize the principle of polishing and competition with the diffusion of reagents. (oxidizing agents and complexing agents).
  • the aluminum is present at a concentration ranging from approximately 1 to 50 g/L, i.e. 0.037 and 1.85 mol/L, preferably at a concentration ranging from approximately 1 to 30 g/L, i.e. 0.037. and 1.1 mol/L.

  • the duration of immersion of the aluminum or aluminum alloy part in the polishing bath is between 5 and 15 minutes, preferably between 7 and 12 minutes, even more preferably the duration of immersion is equal 10 minutes away.
  • the temperature of the bath has an influence on the reaction kinetics of the polishing process, and in particular on the attack speed of the aluminum. The higher the temperature, the more quickly the attacking agents (oxidizing agent, sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid) and complexing agents act. The difference that exists between the reaction speed of the reagents and their diffusion is accentuated, which improves the polishing process and the results obtained, ie a reduction in surface roughness while limiting the reduction.
